Finally starting to watch Dexter on Showtime

No Spoilers, but generally does the quality of the series continue? Or does it turn into a Heroes style mess? (Where the first season was good, and everything goes down hill after that).

Wrong forum



But I say it stays pretty good, even though 5 & 6 kind of suck, but they're still infinitely better than Heroes

Just know that season 4 is probably regarded as one of the best reviewed seasons of the series ever.

3, 5 and 6 the opinions are sort of mixed from the commentary here.

I very much loved S5.
S3 is also good, gets better on repeat viewing.
Didnt like S6.

But any season of Dexter >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> any season of heroes.

This. Up and down quality, but still one of the best shows on TV.

Thanks guys, looks like I'm in for the long haul.

We are about 4-5 episodes into the 2nd season, we are trying to finish 2 seasons before it leaves On Demand (1/3/12)

I disagree. Season 1 of Heroes is phenomenal and way better than seasons 2, 3, 5, and 6 of Dexter. The rest of that series is pure garbage though.

Re: Finally starting to watch Dexter on Showtime

Comparing Dexter to Heroes is blasphemy -- they shouldn't even be mentioned in the same sentence. The worst episode of Dexter still dominates over the best of Heroes.

I don't know. Did you see Dexter do the Hammer dance and take a road trip to Nebraska?
